Bookish Kinda News 4. Shadowhunters Casting & The Selection

Friday, 1 May 2015

Today we finally learned who was casted to play Simon Lewis and Isabelle Lightwood. Simon will be played by Alberto Rosende and Isabelle by Emeraude Toubia. The filming is schedule to start this month, but no word yet about who will be playing the protagonist, Clary Fray.

I other news, The Selection, a YA novel written by Kiera Cass, is coming to the big screen. Or at least, there is a script in the works. Two times CW ordered a series pilot and two times it didn't receive green light. Perhaps, third time's the charm?

For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The
opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be
swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in
a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon.But for
America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back
on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her
home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living
in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.Then
America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the
plans she's made for herself--and realizes that the life she's always
dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.
